On Screen Display
PDC (Programme Delivery Control)
The Programme Delivery Control (PDC) is a very
convenient system which assures that the TV
r^r‘/^/*irS»mmOC \/rM I F*iCui I r^rQgr'QTVj for timsr rscordinQ
will be recorded exactly from beginning to end, even if the
actual broadcasting time differs from the scheduled time
due to delayed start or extension of the programme
duration. Also, if a programme is interrupted and for
example, some special news item is inserted, the
recording will also be interrupted automatically and
resumed when the programme continues.
• In the case of PDC recording, use the correct time (PDC
time) for recording the TV programmes. PDC recording
is not performed when the time (PDC time) is incorrect,
even if only by one minute, i.e. start time as published in
TV programme guide in newspaper, magazine, teletext,
etc.
• Since PDC signals are received when a recording is
programmed using PDC, the power of the unit’s tuner
section is turned on and the programmed broadcasting is
received. When a multiple number of programmes have
been programmed for timer recording, all of the
broadcasts concerned will be received in sequence.
• If the actual broadcasting times of timer recordings
overlap (regardless of whether they are PDC-
controlled), the recording that starts first always has
priority, and the recording of the iater programme vjiii
start only after the first timer recording has finished.
•When the PDC signal drops out because the broadcast
signal is weak, or when a broadcasting station does not
transmit a regular PDC signal, the timer recording will be
performed in the normal mode (without PDC) even if it
was programmed for PDC.
In this case, even if the timer recording is performed,
whatever has been programmed will not be cancelled at
that particular time but at 4 a.m. on the following day.
• PDC recording is also possible during timer recording
from AV2 socket.
